Great App
Looks like you guys fixed my main concern with the app. 5 stars. Great job. This app could be a major improvement to the dumpster fire over at mystopmobile, and I appreciate what you guys are doing. Already the app feels more fluid and is more aesthetically appealing. I love the feature which tells you if the bus is on time. However, if you really want to make a good bus app you need to include an interactive map where you can “find your location” and see the bus stops closest to you on the map. This would make it so much easier to plan routes and quickly find bus stops even if you have no idea where you are. The map should also include visualizations of bus routes that you select. If you make these changes this app could be excellent.

Useful real-time info
This app really exceeds anything available from TCAT, and is more usable just in time to check if a bus will be departing soon near you to a specific destination like Cornell or the Commons (from a variety of stops). Thanks so much for making this available - it was sorely needed.

Finally!
I was getting so tired of having to use 2+ apps just to figure out where I was going and to track the bus, but now I only need one! Thanks guys!
